Confused :-(

Lately, i have just been eating healthy food and not sticking to a so called diet.
I weighed myself friday and i went out drinking yesterday but only had vodka sodas and lime and all i had to eat that day was a bit of steak and half a cheese and pickle sandwich, i felt really fat today and so i weighed myself again and ive put on 4 pounds?!! im really confused... has the drink temporarily bloated me or do you reckon its genuine weight gain? :cry:

I'm not an expert on weighloss/gain. I do work in the drug & alcohol field though.

I would guess it's a combination of the alcohol effects and dehydration/fluid levels plus the fact that you really didn't eat hardly anything by what you say. You would have had to eat/drink around 14000 extra calories on top of your required daily amount to put on 4lbs of fat

I wouldn't worry totally about what the numbers on the scales say (easier said than done I know) and I agree with Abiphoto about only weighing once a week if you can resist? Then you probably wouldn't even be aware of these fluctuations xx
